I'm running pvm 3.3.4 across a 4-machine homogeneous virtual
machine with ARCH=HPPA.  I added "CALL PVMFCATCHOUT(1)" to my
code just before the parent spawned 3 tasks.  I got a bus error.

I went back to the spmd.f program supplied in pvm3/examples.  
I added "CALL PVMFCATCHOUT(1)" just prior to the call to
PVMFSPAWN, and also got a bus error (output follows):

      me = 0  mytid = 262146
     [t40003] BEGIN
     [tc0001] BEGIN
     [t100001] BEGIN
     Bus error


The description of more recent versions of pvm don't mention
any problems with PVMFCATCHOUT, so, have I found a problem,
or am I doing something wrong?
